A fabulous Tiki carving, representating the Hawaiian God, Lono, is particularly interesting and unique in that it is painted in a striking combination of midnight blue and reddish brown colors. It is hand carved from wood in full relief. Although intended as a free-standing figurine/statue, it can be modified to hang as a mask on a wall, thus making it a versitile decorative item in any Polynesian, Pacific/South Seas or Tropical Island-style decor, a wonderful Tiki Bar decoration and a very fine addition to any Tiki collection.

Lono is the God of Peace and Prosperity, and is respected as a Great Healer and Adviser. He is associated with the land, the weather, storms, winds and rain. In certain forms, he is revered as the God of Medicine, the Harvest and Fertility and is celebrated during the Makahiki Festival (held during the 4 month rainy season).

Lono is often characterized by his big teeth which make him appear to be very fierce and even a bit scary, but Lono is actually very loving, caring and nurturing diety, helping to build character, providing protection and strengthening the individual and the Ohana (family).

This Lono Tiki figurine is approximately 24 inches high, 4-1/4 inches wide and 4-1/4 inches deep. The stated dimensions are approximate and through the highest, widest and deepest points. Each Tiki is individually hand crafted (carved and painted) from wood, and for this reason, the size, color and wood grain, and other decorative details may vary slightly from piece to piece.
